Foresight on spatial mobility during green and digital transitions
Twin Transition Attitudes and Regional Left‐Behindness
This article investigates how individual attitudes toward the green and digital transitions, collectively referred to as the twin transition, and expressions of regional left‐behindness shape EU interregional migration intentions across different life domains. The study disaggregates migration intentions by motive, work, education, quality of life, and retirement, to better understand the interplay between personal values and regional structural …
Green attitudes and interregional migration intentions
This paper investigates how pro-environmental preferences interact with structural regional conditions in shaping interregional migration intentions across EU regions. Survey-based individual data are combined with regional indicators in multinomial logit models of short- and long-term migration intentions. Results indicate that pro-environmental preferences are positively and consistently associated with migration intentions, with the strongest …
Exploring regional vulnerability to the Fourth Industrial Revolution
As the Fourth Industrial Revolution (4IR) continues to reshape economies, understanding regional vulnerabilities is crucial to ensuring equitable development. This study investigates regional vulnerability to the 4IR across 236 European regions, emphasising the interplay between exposure and adaptability in shaping the impacts of new technologies’ integration, specifically in the labour market. Using a comprehensive framework, we classify EU regi…
Emerging smart city, transport and energy trends in urban settings
Forecasting future trends constitutes a key process for supporting urban and territorial policy making in general. In this work, we explore how the domains of smart cities, smart transport, and smart energy will evolve until 2030 from a scientific and technological perspective, as a means to inform future policies for urban development in Europe. We started our work with an extensive review of recent and relevant research, covering policy and mar…
Public Investment and Regional Resilience
This paper examines empirically the contribution of public investment expenditures to regional resilience. Analysis is based on a novel dataset including public investment expenditures data decomposed by sub‐categories and disaggregated at NUTS III Greek regions over the period 2000–2017. Results indicate that public investment expenditures had a positive influence on regional resilience during the period of the economic crisis. Decomposing publi…
Digital meets smart
Conceived in the framework of regional studies on Smart Specialisation Strategy (S3) development, this special issue strengthens research efforts oriented towards assembling a technology-enhanced approach to S3 policymaking. First, it sheds light on fundamental methodological limitations that affect S3 development and reports on the digital support tools currently available. Second, it offers a knowledge base for producing novel digital applicati…
New path creation in energy transition
Energy transition is characterised by processes referring to new path creation. These new paths are formed based on existing or novel resources that are often closely related to the social aspect. Hence, social acceptance and new path creation can be considered as mutually reinforcing processes that are crucial in energy transition. The study focuses on the use of agricultural biomass (or “agrobiomass”) as a renewable energy source for heating an…
Smart systems of innovation for smart places
Combining technological relatedness and sectoral specialization for improving prioritization in Smart Specialisation
Relatedness is a popular concept for regional branching within Smart Specialisation. However, this proximity-network approach misses its regional perspective, making difficult its operationalization in regional policies. This paper advances the regional perspective of relatedness for improving prioritization in Smart Specialisation by combining the concepts of technological relatedness and sectoral specialization. Using a four-stage methodology, …
Digital Transformation of City Ecosystems
The paper focuses on the design of urban digital transformation strategies. It builds upon the lessons learned from the Digital Cities Challenge initiative, developed by the European Commission, designed to empower European cities to design and implement digital transformation strategies for the uptake of advanced digital services and the smart growth of city ecosystems. We study three cities that participated in the Digital Cities Challenge—Sofi…
Enhancing sustainable urban development through smart city applications
Purpose This paper investigates the potential contribution of smart city approaches and tools to sustainable urban development in the environment domain. Recent research has highlighted the need to explore the relation of smart and sustainable cities more systematically, focusing on practical applications that could enable a deeper understanding of the included domains, typologies and design concepts, and this paper aims to address this research …
Smart City Planning from an Evolutionary Perspective
In the theory of urban development, the evolutionary perspective is becoming dominant. Cities are understood as complex systems shaped by bottom-up processes with outcomes that are hard to foresee and plan for. This perspective is strengthened by the current turn towards smart cities and the intensive use of digital technologies to optimize urban ecosystems. This paper extends the evolutionary thinking and emerging dynamics of cities to smart cit…
Spatial segregation and migration in the city of Athens
Migration has long had an impact on spatial segregation within the metropolitan area of Athens. This process has also been affected by local economic restructuring mechanisms, which, in recent years, have evolved within the context of the 2008 economic crisis. This study attempts to shed light on the evolution of the spatial segregation of immigrants within the metropolitan area of Athens, during a period of a rapid urban transformation, using da…
